Our Projects

Our organization is committed to pushing for the following initiatives in order to make a meaningful impact on the safety of cyclists in Poughkeepsie. Our view is that these projects will do the most to affect that goal.

  • East West Arterial redesign

    The East West Arterial in its current form encourages traffic to travel at high speeds making it dangerous for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers. The proposed redesign would be a big step in improving safety for all road users.

  • Improve The Dutchess Rail Trail

    Better and safer access to trailheads for pedestrians and cyclists.

  • Make Downtown Safer

    Reimagine Poughkeepsie’s historic downtown to be more cyclists and pedestrian friendly for the benefit of everyone.

  • Increase Local ridership

    Bike PK is partnering with local groups planning rides to encourage more people to get on a bike and go.
